Quote: onewild "There is no doubt that he is a great player but one of your more experienced players or coaches really needs to take him to one side and get him to channel his passion in the right directions instead of some of the childish acts he is prone to do. Then he could be even a better player.'"


interesting comment- james graham is a great player-your very easily pleased mate.

He gets better each week. A few weeks ago some thought he needed a rest. Wow, he looked fresh tonight.

His chase on Burrow in the last couple of minutes was outstanding. The only way it could have been surpassed would be if he could have been in the correct position to begin with instead of catching a sneaky breather at fullback.

that should reel a few in

Other than that he did OK I suppose.

oh for goodness sake get a grip.
what he does he does well & he's a great team player.
but all he does is drive it in over & over again.
to get wet between the the legs is a bit over the top,dont you think?

He's got the potential to be the best British prop since Kevin Ward. I'm not suggesting he's near Ward at his peak and I think they have different games. Ward was a blockbuster but Graham's game is more like a prop from the NRL and he might be the first British player to really get to grips with that since Andy Platt did. Peacock, of course, has been immense but I'm just giving myself a bit of leeway because he played a fair bit in the second row were he was awesome too. I just hope he doesn't get worn out.

Mighty Kevin Ward.

He and Lyons won the NSWRL 1987 title between them.

Surely it would have also been surpassed if he caught him?

I thought that's what props were meant to do? And since he does it better than anyone else then he is by definition a great player. He might not be as exciting to watch as a Greg Inglis or Billy Slater, but he does his job as a prop every inch as well as they do their jobs as backs.

i think you need to be more than a battering ram to be called great. i think if he off loaded the ball more in the tackle he could be held in higher esteem.
although he is up there with the best.
the only two players i would call greats in the modern game are lockyer & johns.

In terms of props, Lima takes some beating on today's performance.

Hugely overrated. A stroppy ginger who can throw the occasional late pass when running in 2s, and has a decent work rate.

One or two moments of class but I've yet to see anything that lives up to the hype. Although his hissy fit on Palea'aesina was certainly spectacular.

Awesome on the pitch also off the pitch as well, James is a Patron for the Life for a Kid Foundation and not only does he put is name to supporting the foundation, he won the Man of The match last night and donated the £100 to the Foundation.

James also give the Foundation is World Cup coin and we auctioned it off for £500.

The Money from last nights man of the match will go towards helping Baby Shannon details below.

Shannon is 22 months old. She has a rare condition called Peters Plus Syndrome. She has had operations on her eyes, which involved putting grafts on her corneas to try to save her sight. Unfortunately Shannon lost her right eye after it became infected following the surgery. Her right eye has now been replaced with a false eye.

The vision in Shannon's left eye is failing and the retina in it must be kept active if Shannon is to be able to retain the partial vision she has.

Shannon's only hope of being able to read and write one day and do some of the things the rest of us take for granted is surgery.

This surgery is available in America and is artificial cornea replacement, known as Keratoprothesis. The cost of this is £27,000. A number of fundraising events have taken place but the amount has not been raised yet. Shannon's sight is running out of time.

Life for a Kid Foundation is helping out my arranging some fundraising events for Shannon and also looking for donations which we can pass onto Shannon.
To help out in any way or to make a donation please contact
